Astonishing Sacrifice!

.
The King of this vast universe
     stepped down from His throne
          into the cradle of His creation
Astonishing!

He lived the life He means for us
     one without sin, one lived for Him,
          showing everyone how it is done.
Astonishing!

Then He paid a most dear price,
     suffering, dying and being buried,
          the holy cost for us falling so short.
Astonishing!

Having shown how much He loved,
     He rose from the dark grave to prove
          our debt once  for all was now paid.
Astonishing!

Then He returned to His throne,
     seated once again beside Father,
          and sent the Spirit to guide us on.
Astonishing!

The astonishing atoning sacrifice of God.
